PVI Commemorates 9/11

To commemorate 9/11, faculty, staff and students gathered after school today to place 1,000 American flags on the front lawn.
Fr. Jonathan led a short liturgy with a reflection about the events of September 11, 2001, prayers, student readings, and concluded with a playing of "Taps."

Loving Father, as we pause to remember the great losses and courageous acts of September 11th, we lift up those who are still affected — families of the victims, police officers, firemen, first responders, and all who were involved, especially those affected from our PVI community. We believe in the power of the cross of Christ to bring good out of evil, and we trust that beauty will continue to come from the ashes of those dark days. Surround us with Your mighty angels and saints, give us compassion for one another in all of life’s circumstances, and instill in each of us the courage to answer Your call to sacrificial love. We ask this through Christ Our Lord, Amen
